Summary
SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Panasas®, a proven leader in high-performance computing (HPC) data storage solutions, today announced the release of a case study featuring the marine survey activities of Panasas customer Magseis Fairfield, a Norway-based geophysics firm that provides ocean bottom seismic acquisition services for exploration and production (E&P) companies. Magseis Fairfield deploys the Panasas ActiveStor® appliance for remote storage support in rugged off-shore environments around the world, where it acquires and stores large amounts of seismic 3D and 4D data used to create highly accurate reservoir models that help reduce the risk of drilling errors, avoid unnecessary disruption of natural sites, and streamline resource extraction. “Part of the reason we’ve relied on Panasas for so long is that the solution and support they provide give us peace of mind,” explains Janie Garcia, manager of onboard processing at Magseis Fairfield. That helps us meet our deadlines and ensure that clients get the information they need.” A single offshore acquisition vessel consists of 80 to 100 personnel – including navigators, geophysicists, and marine mammal observers. Whether it’s building the next Dreamliner, winning a Formula One race, creating mind-bending visual effects, curing disease, or modelling climate change, the world’s leading companies trust Panasas to support their most innovative HPC projects.
